Ginny, I told my DH (a retired firefighter) what you are doing and he thought it was awesome! He suggested you show/tell the local FDs in the area the hats and he said you might be able to make some money from all this! I wouldn't be surprised if someone would pay for a warm, safety hat!

HAHAHAHAHA, you mean AFTER I get the 18 done for my own squad??? My hope is to make Christmas gifts of them. Actually I'm just finishing my second hat, it's getting faster. I discovered that metal needles go alot quicker than the plastic Denise. I've got it down to about 3 evenings of knitting (and mornings on the way to work), I am doing two 12 hour shifts at the firehouse a week this summer plus one long weekend a month so if everyone will stay healthy I should get LOTS of knitting done.
